I agree there will be bloodshed at some point. And the point is getting closer and closer. At my age I'm happy to be among the martyrs for America. But I'm not willing that young people should have to be. But put pissed-off citizens trying to protest peacefully into the city streets, add a bunch of armed soldiers to the mix and you have one giant potential massacre waiting to happen. People are going to die. JMO

Yes, federal agents apparently fired pepper spray or some "irritant" (as they said) into the crowd protesting ICE in LA, which made it hard for police to know what was going on since they were apparently affected by the "irritants," too. But people were protesting the ugly ICE raids, not fighting from anything I've seen. Some trash cans were set on fire, but it was not the "lawlessness" the Trump admin said it was. Protest is still legal, despite Trump's false claims that it is "illegal" for protestors to wear masks.

And I saw videos looked like ICE or other agents also threw flash-bang grenades and fired projectiles into the crowd at the Paramount shopping mall where Home Depot was located...If there was 'violence,' it looked like it was on the side of ICE.

Same as it ever was. If shit is getting stirred, 100% it is instigated by the cops.
